Excerpt:
"It takes time to talk to people in enough places to create a critical mass of opinion and urgency that will cause us to cross the tipping point beyond which a majority will demand that we solve this crisis," he said.I think that global warming hysteria has already peaked in the U.S., and I doubt that Gore will ever get a majority of the people demanding that we solve this alleged crisis.
Selling this stuff to politicians, Hollywood and children tends to be easier than selling it to your average population of adult registered voters.
Note that Democratic voters in Iowa don't seem to care a whole lot about global warming.
Very much like the Ivory-bill hysteria, the peak belief period for each individual tends to occur before he/she seriously examines the evidence. In both hysterias, a reasonable person will almost certainly grown increasingly skeptical after digging into the subject. New global warming skeptics are being minted every day, while the ranks of the believers are thinning.

It also takes facts, which this whole debate is sadly lacking. Understanding something as complex as the Earth's climate will take centuries, not lifetimes.
From the start, the UN IPCC is a biased political animal in search of massive funds from developed countries to be transfered to developing countries. Secondly, if the science were sound, why hide the data, obfuscate the computer models and in general have only a one way conversation.
This says more about what is really going on that a 1,000 Al Gore Nobel Prizes.
